I decided to keep it as is. Sometime I might sell it and I would sell it as it came from DWM. Who am I to second guess its' maker!!I have been offered a replacement from a good friend and collector. Whats stoping me is my original toggle assembly is numbered to the gun a '31. To remove it would create a carbine no longer original.'The so called mistake was put there 90 years ago at DWM. Obviously the multitude of inspectors saw nothing wrong. It had to be noticed. Funny a few professionals saw past the lil sight and along with DWM to appreciate the carbine for whats its worth!Who am I to change its history!!~!EJB
